It's time for the first Monthly NS Internet Scavenger Hunt! This contest will end on Saturday, January 29th, 2005, at 2pm CST with winner announced no later than February 1st, 2005.

The rules:

1. First come, first serve. Part of a scavenger hunt is being fast, so if you don't see this thread and come in late, I'm sorry.
2. Accuracy counts! What I ask for will be very specific. Points will be deducted for not following instructions.
3. Creativity counts! If you find a way to get what I'm asking for in a creative or fun manner, bonus points will be awarded.

This month's required finds:

1. A link to a picture of someone who just had surgery on their hand.
2. A link to a website featuring a Swedish pop sensation.
3. Photoshop a picture of Myrth's cat skateboarding.
4. A link to a website featuring a completely useless corporate tool.
5. Create or link to an exploding smilie.
6. A link to a website where a person could purchase clothing worn by famous dead people.
7. A link to a website featuring the "How to" of clown make-up.
8. Photoshop a picture of Angry Fruit Salad driving a bus. Lunatic Goofballs must be riding the bus.
9. Links to three arguments denouncing the merits of Prozac.
10. A link to a picture of someone riding a pig (not porn, please).

Unfortunately, the only prize this month will be bragging rights. I will try for corporate sponsorship next month.

Now go have fun!

The whole point of a scavenger hunt is to find things, not to make stuff. Please change numbers 3,5 and 8.

Sometimes in scavenger hunts you have to make things. I've participated in scavenger hunts that have called for things like "a hard boiled egg" or "a wet sock".

Bam Margera has scavenger hunts where people have to do things like "drink a dozen raw eggs without puking".

It's not always just about finding stuff.

Just as links would be fine. A copy/paste of the url will suffice.

So, I admit that my photoshopped pictures suck, and some of my links are questionable, but hey, I think they count.
